Jeremy Stephens

Fabes -
Some of you need to relax. The NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB Commissioners don't post answers like this on forum boards. You don't have to kiss anyone's ass but you do need to be respectful. And you should be appreciative.

If the NFL, NBA or whomever commissioner insulted a law enforcement agency and insisted that they shouldn't enforce a felony warrant they would be destroyed by the media and the fans.

So you prefer they use the influence to keep their employees indiscretions out of sight? Out of sight out of mind right? No other professional athlete has ever done anything wrong.

Sucks for Yves, he's a good guy and always brings it. I would have love to see this fight. Whatever the case, Jeremy needs to get his legal matters squared away and learn from this. I like the kid, but he was probably drunk and got himself into a situation that went too far. Hope we get to see him in the octagon again someday.

This is info given to me by a twitter follower of mine on December 1, 2011 regarding an incident involving Jeremy Stephens. It's long.-Stephens was at a bar called Fat Tony's in Des Moines w/his cousin Dustin, fighter Victor Moreno, Shane (Jeremy's childhood friend)+his wife-Shane becomes angry. Someone spilled drinks on credit card. He gets loud, angry. His wife puts her arm on his shoulder. He pushes it away-Jeremy Stephens, intoxicated, sees this as Shane getting physical w/ a woman. JS gets in Shane's face. Threatens him. Security comes over.-Shane is being escorted out of the bar. Dustin (Jeremy's cousin) says to bouncer that's my friend. He convinces him to let him stay...-So Shane and Dustin return to the area where Jeremy Stephens is. Jeremy confronts him and punches Shane 10 times. Also kicked on ground-Dustin, also heavily intoxicated, joins in on beating of Shane. Shane's wife, pregnant at the time, convinces them to stop the beating-Shane's wife brings him outside bar. Puts him in a car. Jeremy Stephens sees him in car,punches hole thru window, drags him out.More beating-Stephens bails when cops show up. Shane is taken by ambulance to hospital. He spends 3 days in ICU. Here's the real interesting part...-Dustin is arrested and charged with the assault. Stephens allegedly offers to pay for Dustin's legal bills for him to take the fall.-Stephens gets out of dodge. Has other friend drive him to Omaha to get back to San Diego. Avoid questioning. Scheduled 2 b there a wk longer-Again, this was information given to me. Everything is alleged. The source had incredible details so that's story as told to me.

Front rowBWith the info!Hope.it's not true, I mean Jeremy has a kid n family n stuff and should KNOW WAY BETTER. He's not 15 !

Buddy, please point out where in my post I said anything close to the mindless nonsense you just posted.

Drunkie - can the courts do that? if they set a bail shouldn't they be forced to honor it? every time they see that he was going to bailed out they just raise it up? whats the point of the bail then cuz clearly they was just making excuses not to let him out. doesn't that break the laws?

fuck the police. i hope the ufc uses their lawyers to rape that court for this shit. nothing worse then when they system breaks there own rules

"if [the court] sets a bail, shouldn't they be forced to honor it?"

Yes, and they will, but he's apparently waiting for his transport to somewhere else.. He'll have to wait until after his bail hearing to leave from there (Iowa?).

Depends what 'respect' means. I don't see anyone here calling Dana a "faggot" or a "fucking bitch" like he enjoys calling people.

Is calling someone who is blatantly lying a liar being disrespectful?

Ease up on that trigger finger.

What evidence do you have that DFW lied? The idea that he KNEW that Stephens wasn't going to be able to fight, but decided to lie to his customers is, frankly, insane. There is zero upside to lying in this case.

Isn't it more probable that DFW was simply wrong?

I've been saying this exact same think on the other Jeremy Stephens thread for hours Caffiend. People just seem to be stuck with their narrow minded opinions. Dana ended up being wrong but IMO he didn't lie. To lie requires intent to deceive otherwise it's just being wrong.

I don't KNOW that Jessica Alba won't show up to my house later on. But if I tell you to come round to meet her and she doesn't show, I don't get to say "sorry, I was wrong". I was lying.

Dana may not have KNOWN that Stephens couldn't fight (although I don't actually believe this either) but he knew there was a very real chance that he couldn't.

Thus by unequivocally stating that Stephens will fight, he was lying. He could have said "we are confident Stephens can still fight tonight" and nobody would give a shit. Instead he chose to lie.

I don't think he was motivated by financial gain, others have a good theory on this. He can't admit the MMA media is right about anything so he lies.

Just like how he tried to claim that GSP is a bigger draw than Brock Lesnar was, which is also a blatant lie.

Damn, not the Jessica Alba defense. There's no rebuttal to the Jessica Alba defense. I'm just going to have to back out now... shit!

Yeah that example was pretty stupid.

Quick, somebody bail me out.

No, I actually think that made a lot of sense. Jessica Alba is here right now and she agrees.

Why not Edwards vs Tavares? I know, I know, extremely late notice and whatnot... but the company rhetoric over the past month and a half has been about guys stepping up and taking last minute fights (didn't think that needed to be literal) for the good of the organization.

Aside from the card tonight, criminal assault is criminal assault. I have no idea if he's guilty or not and I will not speculate, but criminal actions deserve legal penalties. That holds true whether a person steals a stick of gum, murders and violates a nun, or whatever. There is absolutely no justification otherwise. All I can say that Jeremy does deserve is a fair trial via due process of law.

If that last part about dipping out and going back to San Diego is true, then that would explain why he didnt get bail set.

Front rowBWith the info!Hope.it's not true, I mean Jeremy has a kid n family n stuff and should KNOW WAY BETTER. He's not 15 !

if this true I officially renounce my Jeremy Stephens fan club membership

Dana didnt lie dipshits. If he had dialog going with them and he was meeting there demands, and they kept re-nigging on the bail deal, then he wasn't lieing... He thought he was gonna bail him so he said "he will fight". Quit acting like he owes youan apology...

dfw jr -
So here's the deal. I have been working since 11am to get him out of jail. the people in Iowa hate this kid and are going to stick it to him for SURE. Everytime I would cut a deal for bail they would change the deal and I was willing to do anything. They kept changing the deal thinking I would tapout and when I didn't they left me hangin changing it every 5 mins. People at Minn Sheriffs Dept were amazing and I wNt to thank them. He has been in town since Monday and they arrested him Friday at 11am for a reason to really fuck him. I literally just told Yves he wasn't fighting 35 mins ago. He is a TRUE OLD SCHOOL PRO who waited all night for us to try and get Jeremy here!!!!! It is a pleasure being in biz with u Yves. So I wanted u the fans to hear it from me first.

From afar,there are times where I dont always agree with what you do or say, but god damn you try your best. All the best for Yves and Jeremy.
